Chapter 3: Passion and Dreams
She can send a video message with Xia Mengmeng, that is to say, she can contact the original world, isn't this golden finger big enough?
"Meng Meng, I need a comic called "The First God Fist", send it to me when I find it."
Xia Meng sent a message to Xia Meng with her mobile phone, straightforward, no nonsense, they inherited each other's memories, it can be said that they have the same heart, and naturally there is no need to waste time.
Soon the comics came to the sprout, and I didn't ask too much.
"The First God Fist" is a hot-blooded comic about boxing, although it is not well-known, but those who have seen it will give a high evaluation, this is a hot-blooded comic that belongs to men.
Xia Meng's literary path will start with this comic, in addition to hot blood, the comic just fits her current identity - boxer.
Nowadays, most comics are serialized on the Internet, and you can create them as long as you have a computer and a pen tablet, which is much lower than before.
Don't look at the small room, the equipment for drawing comics is complete, because Xia Mengmeng herself is also a fan of comics, and even bought tools and has creative ideas, of course, in addition to hobbies, her idea is very utilitarian, that is, to make money, but the cruel reality made her quickly give up this idea, and the tools were also thrown aside.
Ready, Xia Meng began to copy the ...... Ahem...... Creation.
Because Japan has become a part of China, the name of the He clan is very common, Xia Meng didn't even change his name and moved it directly, and the protagonist is still called Makuuchi Yiyi.
At the end of the day, Xia Meng didn't even have time to drink saliva, she drew a total of six words, she was very dissatisfied with the efficiency, although many cartoonists can only draw one word a week, but she copied it, completely copied, this speed is not fast.
After eating some dry bread briefly, Xia Meng considered the issue of publishing.
First of all, it is a magazine company, paper submissions can be reviewed by special editors, it is difficult to bury, plus now comic magazines are very popular, hundreds of schools of thought are contending, Xia Meng knows that there are "Wind Comics", "Friends Man", "Man King", "Comics House" and so on, as long as you can go on one casually, with the quality of "The First God Fist", it will inevitably be a big hit. The only problem is that the return cycle is too short, once a week, it is estimated that she will starve to death before she gets the manuscript fee.
There is also publishing, which is basically steadily famous, the problem is that you have to pay out of your own pocket or pull sponsorship, and you have to contact the publishing house, and the most important thing is to paint at least one volume, which Xia Meng doesn't have, so don't consider it directly.
Next, there is only one channel left for online serialization, the advantage is that the update is fast, there are many readers, and the money comes quickly, but the disadvantages are that it is difficult to be famous.
There are three well-known comic websites: Terminal Comics, American Comic House, and Penguin Comics.
Xia Meng almost didn't think about it, she chose Penguin Comics, how could she not hug her father's thighs, with the largest traffic, countless elementary school students gathered, it was really suitable.
The first is registration, and the pen name she set is: A cute cat who doesn't know kung fu, the reason is that Xia Mengmeng's QQ nickname is this, and she doesn't bother to think about it.
After uploading the identity information, Xia Meng began to upload comics, she didn't count the manuscripts, and uploaded all six words in one go.
After all, it was the first comic she had drawn, Xia Meng was very excited, staring straight at the screen, constantly refreshing the page, her chest was like blood burning, and she couldn't even blink her eyes when she thought that she was about to become popular.
Two hours passed, and Xia Meng's eyes were already bloodshot, but the situation she expected did not appear, next to the cover of the comic, it was cruelly written click 10.
Novels are all deceptive, and there is no such thing as a casual comic that will become popular at all, okay?
There are ten clicks in total, and one is your own, no one reads it, and there are ghosts if you can be famous.
The problem is not in the work, although there are only ten clicks, but there are 7 collections, five people offer flowers, and there are two rewards, one is 100 yuan, one is 200 yuan, and the amount is not low.
There are several comments under the work.
"The author is updating quickly, the first time I read the comics, I read the comics with great enthusiasm, it's so exciting!"
"Boxing is so handsome, I want to practice catching leaves."
"Reward 100 soft sister coins, does the author add a lot more?"
"Does the author have a group?"
"Ask for the group number, ask for the anus!"
Looking at the comment area, which is quite lively, Xia Meng can't be happy, if she paints casually, she is very happy to have someone to support her, but the problem is that she wants to survive, and the goal is 100 million, which is a bit big.
It's not difficult to understand that the click is low, Xia Meng didn't recommend it, and he didn't even sign a contract, and the work only stayed on the homepage for a few minutes when it was updated, so it's strange that someone can read it.
This is a world of wide advertising, many people think that good works should soar into the sky, this is impossible, more advertising, people will care more about advertising, the answer is obviously no, it will only increase people's disgust.
Penguin Comics has a lot of readership, so there are a lot of recommendations, smart editors will try to recommend good works, and advertisements are everywhere, so it is impossible for an author like Xia Meng to be noticed.
There are no recommendations, no ads, readers can only search for the name of the comic to see it, or look for it in the general library, and it is strange to notice, the reality is so cruel.
Downstairs to buy a few boxes of instant noodles, Xia Meng was ready to continue fighting.
After that, she painted four more words, and painted until three o'clock in the middle of the night, and she couldn't lift her eyelids.
……
Yuan Fei used to run business, and now he is a supervisor, compared with ordinary white-collar workers, he earns a lot, but he is also tired a lot.
There is no regularity in his life, and he may fly to a certain city tomorrow and fight with a certain boss at the wine table.
At half past two in the middle of the night, he came home drunk, he didn't know how much wine he drank, some people respected him, he did it, some people respected the boss, he also did it, he had to drink if he couldn't drink it, and he didn't go to the toilet to spit out and drink again.
With his current ability, it is difficult to get drunk, the people at the table have fallen, he can still stay sober, he has earned no less than the small bosses, and he lives in a luxurious suite, but today he only feels very tired.
The company, the hotel, the home, he feels trapped inside, making money and drinking, tired as a dog, and has no time to spend, is this the life he wants?
Dragging his tired body, Yuan Fei turned on the computer, comics are his only hobby, and warm stories are the best harbor.
However, I casually found a few comics recommended on the homepage, Yuan Fei felt that his head hurt even more, and it was love and love, all of which were students' stuff, do you know that this society is so cruel?
Yuan Fei felt bored and decided to turn off the computer, and at this time, a comic called "The First Divine Fist" appeared on the update page.
I don't know where the interest came from, he clicked on the comics, maybe because of the title of the second secondary school, maybe it was the hedgehog head with a sandbag on the cover that attracted him, or maybe because he also liked boxing.
In the first word, the male protagonist was bullied by a group of little gangsters and was beaten into a pig's head, seeing this, Yuan Fei couldn't help but wonder, wasn't he bullied by bad teenagers when he was a child, but now which of these guys has him mixed well? Hum.
Next, the male protagonist is rescued by a boxing practice Eagle Shoumura, and takes him back to the boxing gym to teach him to punch punching bags...... Next, the actor watched Tyson's KO highlight video, decided that he wanted to become a boxer, and accepted the task of catching leaves in Takamori Village.
Because he has practiced boxing, there are some things that Yuan Fei understands, and there are many things he doesn't understand, it turns out that boxing should be like this, it turns out that he can train like this, he brought it into himself, what would happen if he practiced boxing in this way before, if he didn't give up, would his life be more exciting?
With anticipation, Yuan Fei watched it in one breath, and when he lost to the genius Miyada Ichiro in one step, and didn't even hit a punch, Yuan Fei still watched it very well. Passionate blood, sweating, fists to the flesh, is the opponent but sympathizes with each other, this is a man's sport, stick to the dream, and then what if you lose, isn't it also very happy to take a step, compared to being beaten by hooligans, his injuries are countless times heavier, but he is so happy and satisfied, maybe this is the persistent love.
Who hasn't had a dream? Although it is gone, every time I recall it, the corners of my mouth can't help but rise.
Yuan Fei is a mature man, it is impossible to give up everything now because of a comic, but something in his heart has been awakened, who says that the next life will not be more exciting?
Just let one step carry his dream and gallop to the boxing field, Yuan Fei smiled slightly, and did not hesitate to reward 10,000 yuan, which is a lot for him, maybe seeing his dream continue, he feels that it is worth it.
The comic only has ten words, Yuan Fei read it again, and he was still unsatisfied, so he picked up his mobile phone and recommended this comic in all groups, which may be a little helpful to the author.
There are not many readers who can see "The First Divine Fist", and there are many people who are confused and wandering in reality, and they all feel that the fire in their hearts has been ignited, and it is a sleepless night.
